Yeah if you're going for a game that's mostly Pokemon-based, this ain't it.

It's just ARK but pokemon instead of dinosaurs, and you don't lose them when they're killed, and it has some of that botw/genshin exploration/collectability sprinkled in. It's fun, but it's a survival first, mons are one of the gimmicks.

That's exactly what this is. It's ARK meets BotW plus pokemon, but the pokemon actively help around your base, you don't lose them permanently when they die, and you carry them in their pokeballs. And it doesn't run as dogshit as ARK proper, so that's something?

That would require the VPN service to keep track of users' usage and be able to match traffic to user, which most (or most of the big ones at least) very specifically, very on purpose, explicitly say they don't do, which would be really bad for them if it turned out to be false.

Yeah I sure hope they've learned from NMS and specifically underpromise and overdeliver, but most nervousness can be explained by him just being an introverted dork. I can relate.

To "link" other devices you have to scan a qr from your phone, so it's certainly possible that during that process the devices connect and share the key, and the servers don't have it.

Or the servers could have it. Idk, it's closed source, that's the problem at hand.

Just

git add . && git commit -m "sorry theres a fire" && git push -u origin feature/fire

And run out. It will eventually finish pushing. Or not.

Steam's price settings page already has a very convenient Recommended Prices button that sets your game's price to what Valve estimates would be okay for that region. For most devs, that's perfectly adequate. Valve already did the homework so devs don't have to.

Publishers that would want to charge more would likely just set the USA price anyway and forgo regional pricing.

And if you want to charge less than the recommended price, while appreciated, why?

Microsoft already has a webview software that deals with that, which afaik already also comes with Windows, and is independent of Edge.

Edge, the browser proper, is in no way a dependency of anything else.

Yeah but in that case it isn't nuking the boot files required to boot Windows, it's just clearing the boot entry list and reenabling os-prober and updating grub is enough to fix it. It's like a 1 minute process tops.

Windows is capable of permanently nuking your Linux boot partition, overwriting it entirely and you'd have to boot into a live iso and take several more steps to fix it unless you keep a backup of your boot partition.

Same. Been wanting to learn some new frameworks and stuff, but I'm incapable of learning without using it on a real use-case project I actually need.

And I've been all out of ideas on that front for a while.

Some things just aren't good enough yet.

Like VR compatibility and performance, particularly with nvidia and quest headsets.

Otherwise yeah, 99% of my games would run perfectly fine.

That's exactly the why. Whenever a peronist presidency fails (which is... all of them for the most part), people will vote for the "whatever's not peronism". It's akin to people in the US voting "not rep". You can't think of this as right/left, it's "populists you know that never fix things, vs someone else that might be a nuclear bomb on the economy and everything else but current status quo is already a guaranteed death sentence albeit slower so might as well try something new". That's the pendulum swinging hard in the opposite direction, people don't vote for the status quo when in desperation and crisis. This time it's just more extreme than usual. It doesn't help that there's not a single actually good option that you'd say "yeah, I can live with this" available.
